Nigeria’s music scene is buzzing after Champz, the 14‑year‑old son of Afrobeats superstar Wizkid, officially became the youngest artist to reach #1 on Apple Music Nigeria’s Top Albums Chart.
His debut EP, “Champions Arrival,” shot straight to the top in just five hours after release, marking a milestone achievement for the rising star.
This achievement mirrors the legacy of his father, Wizkid, whose debut album “Superstar” famously sold 5 million physical copies in Nigeria on its first day of release. Now, Champz has carved his own path, setting a new record and proving that talent runs deep in the family.
“Biggest Bird Gave Us Medium Bird”
Fans online are celebrating the moment with the phrase: “Biggest Bird Gave Us Medium Bird”, a playful nod to Wizkid’s nickname “Biggest Bird” and Champz’s meteoric rise. Social media is flooded with congratulatory messages, hailing Champz as the future of Afrobeats.
This record not only cements Champz’s place in Nigerian music history but also highlights the global reach of Afrobeats, with younger generations stepping up to carry the torch. His success is seen as a sign of the genre’s unstoppable momentum worldwide.
